Yun Chuan took Yang Qingyuan to the back of Yucui Mountain. The moonlight was shining and the breeze was blowing. The two stood opposite each other, their clothes were fluttering in the wind, and the tips of their hair were tickling their faces. Yun Chuan looked at Yang Qingyuan's handsome face and thought that the beauty in the world was nothing more than this.
"You..." Yang Qingyuan wanted to ask her what happened, but remembering Yunchuan's tearful eyes in the afternoon, and feeling that opening her mouth like this would cause trouble again, she swallowed her words.
"What about me? What do you want to ask me?" Yun Chuan asked softly as he looked at Yang Qingyuan with clear eyes, as if stars were falling.
"Nothing, nothing." Yang Qingyuan shook his head slightly and said helplessly.
"Oh." Yun Chuan looked at the silent Yang Qingyuan and wondered if he was being too preoccupied? Then he tentatively said, "Thank you just now. If you hadn't helped me, I don't know what I would have done next."
"Looking at the attire of you and Changsun Ying, I thought you were..." Yang Qingyuan felt a little regretful after saying this. What does this have to do with him?
"My aunt coaxed me to wear this outfit. If I had known that it was Changsun Ying's idea, I wouldn't have worn it." Yun Chuan immediately clarified. It turned out that he had noticed his outfit a long time ago. I couldn't help but feel a little happy.
There was another moment of silence, and the slightest breeze could be heard extremely clearly.
Yun Chuan took a deep breath and thought: Who cares, if he really thinks too much, then get drunk tonight and pretend nothing happened when the sun rises tomorrow!
Yun Chuan took a deep breath and summoned up the courage to ask, "Do you have a sweetheart?"
"Huh?" Yang Qingyuan looked at her doubtfully, not knowing how to answer. Sweetheart? Does it count?
"Uh, what I want to say is, can I be your sweetheart?" After Yun Chuan finished speaking, he quickly pursed his lips and lowered his head, feeling that his face was red to the roots of his ears.
"Huh?" Yang Qingyuan was a little shocked, suspecting that there was something wrong with his ears. He frowned tightly and looked at Yunchuan, who had his head lowered. His ears were red and his hands were clasped together. If you heard correctly, how should you answer this question?
"Because, because," Yunchuan didn't expect that confession would be such a difficult thing. Isn't it his usual style to dare to love, hate, and act? How come the words I want to say cannot come out of my mouth as if I were possessed by a demon, and why is this Yang Qingyuan always "huh"?
"Because I don't have ten thousand taels of gold, and I don't actually have much money. I may not be able to pay you the bounty. So, I think we can find another way." Yunchuan didn't dare to raise his head, and he didn't know why he was looking for it. This poor reason.
"Then you set up this arena, just in case..." Yang Qingyuan looked at the felt hat swinging in front of him, how could he act so recklessly, "If these people participate in the arena, if they don't get the bounty they deserve, , can do anything.”
Hearing Yang Qingyuan's focus, Yun Chuan was speechless. He raised his head and looked at him with slightly squinted eyes, trying to confirm whether the person in front of him was a stone or a piece of wood. "I mean I have no money, not that our clan has no money! If someone else wins, I will have to pay the bounty even if I borrow money." The more Yumikawa explained, the more he felt something was wrong, "But that's not the point. Money, the point is... No, you can’t really do it because of ten thousand taels of gold, right?”
"Of course it's not because of gold." Yang Qingyuan retorted.
"Really?! That's because of me, right? You don't want to see me marry my eldest grandson, right?" Yunchuan raised his head, his eyes shining.
"Maybe." What a pair of beautiful eyes. When Yang Qingyuan saw her reflection in them, her heart palpitated and her voice trembled.
Yunchuan's smile bloomed, and his red face was as dazzling as the late night sun. She breathed a sigh of relief, thinking this was a yes answer, right? "This is my first confession. I don't know what to say. I feel like I have liked you for a long time, at least five or six years ago. Do you feel it?" Yunchuan was a little angry at his cowardice at the moment and took a step closer. I want to see every expression and every movement of Yang Qingyun clearly.
"Five or six years?" Yang Qingyuan was a little hesitant, why was he so dazed tonight, like a dream. There was a voice in my heart telling myself to "reject her", but why couldn't I bear to say it out loud. How long have I not seen this smiling face?
"Don't worry about numbers, they just mean a long, long time. Don't you people from the Central Plains say 'love at first sight, love at first sight'? That's how I felt when I saw you a few days ago." Yunchuan was a little happy, and finally I said everything I wanted to say.
"A few days ago?" Yang Qingyuan was a little confused. Didn't they have a quarrel by the river for the first time a few days ago?
Yun Chuan saw that Yang Qingyuan was a little confused, but he couldn't let him find a way to refuse. He had to chase and capture him: "You don't know, do you? You will know in the future. I will definitely be very, very good to you!"
Yang Qingyuan was completely stunned, and Yun Chuan breathed a sigh of relief, thinking: Not bad, not bad. Although his reaction was not enthusiastic, he did not flinch. There should be something interesting.
"Actually, no need." Yang Qingyuan took a long time to spit out these four words. He had never heard such a passionate confession. If it had been any other woman, he would have walked away coldly. This woman said that she "has liked me for a long time", but it was obvious that I had only known her for a few days, but for some reason, I could always see the long-lost shadow in her. This shadow was so warm that it made people unconscious. Slowly approaching, unable to bear to leave.
"It's useful, and I'm only good to you in this way!" After saying this, Yunchuan felt embarrassed and quickly changed the subject and said, "I will go to Xiayi with you in Yinshi. Brother Wenhan will be fine. . Let’s pack up and set off as soon as possible. This way we can stagger the people who are returning to the Central Plains and make the journey easier.”
This was the most important thing. He was planning to set off immediately, but thinking about the twists and turns that Yun Chuan had gone through with him these past few days, he said, "How about we set off at five o'clock?"
"Yes! Five o'clock is fine! You can do it anytime you want." Yunchuan was elated, and the fatigue of the past few days had long since disappeared. "Just take the snow lotus with you, and leave the rest to me. I will arrange for two horses soon." Nice horse.”
Yang Qingyuan touched the snow lotus box placed on her chest, and suddenly felt that the "Cloud Atlas" jade pendant on her waist was missing. She had confirmed that it was on her waist before attending the Yunshi Conference.
"What's wrong? What's missing?" Yun Chuan became nervous when he saw Yang Qingyuan's anxious look.
"I have a round jade pendant, which may have been left at the Yunshi Conference." Yang Qingyuan carefully checked the sleeves, arms, waist, and any place on the body where items might be placed, and said with a frown.
"It's very important, isn't it? Let's find it quickly. The conference venue won't be cleaned up tonight, so we will definitely find it." Yun Chuan picked up the hem of his skirt and ran towards the marble conference site in front of the mountain.
"Is it a round jade pendant? Is it white or cyan? Are there any decorations like tassels?" Yunchuan lay on the ground with his waist bent, and on the grass where Yang Qingyuan just competed, with the faint moonlight, he held his hands I dug up the grass and looked for it carefully bit by bit.
"No tassels, white." Yang Qingyuan replied softly, her heart trembling a little. The huddled red figure moved little by little with its head almost buried in the grass.
"I know." Yunchuan turned around, looked at Yang Qingyuan who was staring at him, waved his hand and said, "Go and look for where you sit at night. If I don't find it here, I will go to your side."
"Okay." Yang Qingyuan replied. Under the hazy moonlight, Yunchuan's face had been inadvertently turned into a little cat with his own hands.
After a while, Yun Chuan saw a little bit of white peeking out from under a piece of grass. Her eyes lit up and she quickly opened up the hidden grass. "I found it!" Yun Chuan shouted happily.
Yang Qingyuan stood up and looked back. Yun Chuan was holding a round jade pendant and waving happily towards him. Yun Chuan stood up and wanted to run over, but after squatting for too long, his legs were already numb. As soon as he took two steps, his legs went weak and he stepped on the corner of his skirt.
"Ah!" Yunchuan stumbled forward and fell to the ground, but did not forget to hold the jade pendant tightly in his hand.
Yang Qingyuan quickly walked over and helped Yun Chuan up, looking at Yunchuan's dirty face and clothes with some embarrassment: "Are you okay?"
Yun Chuan held Yang Qingyuan's hand, thinking about the scene just now, he was really embarrassed, and his face turned red to the ears: "My legs are a little numb, this dress is too long, I don't usually dress like this. You, you must never do it, eh , it was so embarrassing just now.”
Yang Qingyuan's eyebrows relaxed, she reached out and patted the dust on Yunchuan's dress, and asked, "Does it hurt from the fall?"
Hearing this question, his voice was low, but he felt like he had eaten honey. He smiled so much that he narrowed his eyes. He waved his hand and said, "It doesn't hurt. I'm not a porcelain person. There's nothing wrong with me. You Look, my legs are healed too.”
"Your face?" Yang Qingyuan saw Yun Chuan's face covered in gray and white patches. He wanted to help her wipe it, but he hesitated when he stretched his hand into the air. The same smile, but not the same face. Could it be that everything is just a show? Dream?
Yang Qingyuan's face returned to calmness and he withdrew his hand, but Yunchuan didn't pay attention at all. Instead, he shrank down shyly, pursed his lips and said, "I'll just go back and wash my face. This is your jade pendant. This jade pendant is Isn’t it particularly important? Is it a family heirloom?”
Yun Chuan stretched out his hand that was holding the jade pendant tightly, and Yang Qingyuan discovered that there were red and swollen scratches on Yun Chuan's hand. He couldn't bear it, but he didn't know what to do, so he had to take the jade pendant and whispered back: "It is very important. "
"There is a cloud picture on this one." Yun Chuan asked tentatively, "Well, can you give this to me?"
"No." Yun Chuan was a little surprised that he refused so simply.
"Oh, is it so important?" Yun Chuan was a little unwilling to give up. Wasn't he very kind to him just now?
Yang Qingyuan was silent, and the past events kept reappearing, and her heart was heavy: Should I reject her? She doesn't need to be nice to me?
Yun Chuan felt a little distressed when he saw that Yang Qingyuan's face was as solid as a piece of iron. Maybe it was passed down to him by someone close to him like Shengze's jade pendant? Then he quickly said: "I don't need this, I just asked casually. I'm so careless and it's easy to lose it. Let's go back, you go and have a rest, and I'll arrange the horses. I'll wait for you at the west entrance at the fifth watch."
"Yeah, okay." Yang Qingyuan seemed a little relieved, put away the jade pendant, and hurried back with Yunchuan.
